Wednesday paint along
Don't make the mistake of painting over the table with the background colour like I do in the video!!! I used, Opera pink, alizarin, quinacridone rose and quinacridone magenta, lemon yellow and helio cerulean blue & yellow ochre. but test out your colours first to see what works for you. I did it A5

The live I recorded this morning is still processing so Iit won't be ready for this evening. I have uploaded a different video to go live at 7.30. The photo reference is below. It is of Hawkshead Hill in Cumbria. Hope you enjoy it. Its only 35 minutes.

Due to the heatwave in the uk at the moment, I will have to record tomorrow’s paint along but it will still go live at 7.30 and I will be on the chat for any questions. My painting desk is in the conservatory and even in the evening it’s too hot to sit in. We are doing something a bit different this week. Some glorious tulips. Now you might not have the right shade of pink for these which is ideally opera pink but you can do them in any colours because the principals are the same. We will be layering colour. I do hope you will tune in and join me. I am going to be using the colours in my tiny palette which are mostly Daniel smith so will give me lots of pigment . The pinks are just suggestions for you but it’s not important which colours you use to be honest. The second line drawing is an A5 version which is the size I will be doing.
